YellowTulou Laocha (Old Yellow Tea)
235,00 krAdd to basket50 g
It is an unusual yellow tea through 9 years of ageing in Tulou granary! It appears soft yellow. Steeping in water for half a minute, the tea turns light brown. The tea tastes mellow and smooth with a scent of sweet flowery fragrance.
The Chinese name “Tulou Laocha” means “mud building old tea”. Tulou mud buildings can be found nestling in the mountains of Zhangzhou district, southern Fujian.
The tea comes from the mountains behind the Tulou. It is made from spring tea buds, plucked once a year in early March. The tender spring buds and leaves are first laid on bamboo mats for drying in the sun; then are slightly baked over a charcoal fire. After that, the tea is collected in cotton bags and laid amongst the piles of grain in a Tulou granary. The grain acts as insulation to keep the temperature of the tea constant. The tea rests in the granary for seven to nine years, hence comes to the term “laocha” – old tea.

WhiteWhite Hair Silver Needles
285,00 krAdd to basket50 g
the first White tea spring buds harvested in early March 2024
Mild, fresh plants’ aroma, light yellow infusion, appealing subtle taste.
It is a tea closest to Nature! It is unique from the White tea cradle, the Tai Mu mountains in Fuding county, northeast of Fujian. The tea is made from early spring tender sharp-end tea buds covered with white hairs. The hairy tea buds are carefully spread out on bamboo mats in the sunshine until they get dried and wither naturally. On rainy days the tea buds are moved indoors and laid upon a mild low-temperature charcoal fire. Thanks to the light process, fine quality White tea keeps well all its health contents, such as vitamins, Tea Polyphenols, and free amino acids.
The Tai Mu mountain local tea farmers have more than one thousand years of life experience and knowledge in using White tea for keeping health, especially one-year-stored “White Hair Silver Needles” to release fever from measles.
